I had a bit more difficulty than usually trying to pick an Amazon First Read. I stumbled upon this one though and even though it's not a book I would usually pick, I decided to go for it.
This novel by Krause is about a man who inherits a house from his aunt, which he's not allowed to sell and which have (in his mind) impossible and outrageous living conditions.
He decides to rent the big house out, with ghosts and all. Three women move in. All of them have been "ghosted" for different reasons. Maude has been left at the altar, Mackenzie lost her sisters, and Sunna her best friend. These three women get to know each other really quickly when a mysterious letter shows up at their house from an unknown sender. Who is returning for them? Is it the runaway fiancé? The missing sister? The best friend?
The story of the book is funny in itself, but the writing is great! The dialogues are often funny and quite relaxed. A lot happens in the book, because these three main characters aren't the only ones central to the plot. Larry, the landlord is as well. I didn't like him that much. The author didn't try to make him likeable. Then there are the ghosts...
It's worth a read, and I'm happy once again with my Amazon First Read pick!
